The Light of the World - Matthew 5:14-16

Quote of the Day
May Christ, the Light of the World, shine through our lives every day of the year.
Nan Forehand

(14) "You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. (15) Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. (16) In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in Heaven."

I want to share with you in the youtube video at the right one of the most beautiful examples of light I have seen. Mr. Holdman has created such a wonderful display of Christmas lights set to music. It is an awesome display not to be missed! I believe God gifted this man with the vision, desire and ability to share with the world something so beautiful. It is my privilege to share it with you. Mr. Holdman lives in Utah.
There is more than enough ugliness in the world. We have to share more beauty and light with everyone. We all need a reason to smile and to be amazed at such beauty some of us can't even imagine. This music and light display are God's gift to us through this talented and gifted man. Simply click on the youtube video at the right of this page entitled Music Box Dancer and enjoy!
Love, Nan
